Treasure Hunt all over the World

"Boom Boom Boom"

There was a sudden gunshot on the other side of the hill, which shocked everyone.

Everyone turned their heads to look in the direction from which the gunfire came, but there was a towering hill over there, and they couldn't see anything. Everyone didn't know what was happening over the hill.

Just as everyone was surprised, Seaman's voice suddenly came from the walkie-talkie.

"Steven, those guys with unknown origins are going to run, and they are on fire with the Tigray State Police. The guys are armed with automatic weapons and the firepower is very fierce. The Tigray State Police was completely unable to move when they were suppressed."

Upon hearing the announcement, Ye Tian immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

"Those guys are obviously coming for the tripartite joint exploratory team. Whether to support the Tigray State Police or not, you decide for yourself. I only have one request, and I must never let them go to the top of the mountain!"

"Understood, Steven, we know what to do"

Seaman responded and ended the call.

After a while, the gunfire on the hillside suddenly became more intense, and some gunfire seemed to be from the top of the mountain.

Obviously, the Israeli security personnel joined the battle and began to encircle and suppress those who came from unknown sources.

Although the other side of the hill was full of enthusiasm, the members of the tripartite joint exploration team and many experts and scholars in the Obelisk Square gradually relaxed.

After the initial panic, everyone quickly regained their composure and continued to explore.

The nearby residents and many media reporters who gathered around the Obelisk Square and stood on the surrounding hills watching the excitement were a little panicked.

Many people came down from those hills and hurried back to their homes, lest they would suffer from the fish.

It didn't take long for the gunfire on the other side of the hill to subside.

Most of the guys who tried to sneak up the hill on the north side of the Obelisk Square above were killed by condescending Israeli snipers.

The two guys who survived were also seriously injured and fell into the hands of the Tigray State Police.

For them, this result may be worse than death.

In the Obelisk Square, exploration continues.

With the passage of time, everyone has basically ascertained which underground buildings in the square are safer and can be accessed for exploration, and which underground buildings have relatively large safety hazards and cannot be entered.

After determining this point, the various exploratory teams began to enter the relatively safe underground buildings one after another to launch exploratory operations.

Those inaccessible underground buildings can only be explored by small drones and small robots.

After Ye Tian and the others explored the above-ground parts of the two ancient ruins, they have also gone underground.

This is an ancient tunnel made of granite slabs and stones. The inside is quite spacious. There is no problem for an adult man to walk in it, so he doesn't have to worry about touching his head.

Said to be a tunnel, in fact, it is more like a tunnel.

In this strong and ancient corridor, there is a square vent every five or six meters, similar to a patio, connected to the ground.

Sunlight can directly enter the tunnel through those vents, and the visibility in the tunnel is quite good, not much different from the outside world.

On both sides of this tunnel, there are many houses or caves made of granite, large and small, deep and shallow.

In addition, there are many forks in the tunnel, which are connected with other tunnels on the Obelisk Square, forming a huge underground complex.

After entering this tunnel, Ye Tian first checked the basic situation here, and then took two archaeologists and an exploration team under him to explore.

As before, the exploration team scanned the ground and walls on both sides of the tunnel with a pulsed metal detector.

Since this tunnel is located more than three meters underground, scanning from the tunnel, the pulse metal detector can detect a depth of about ten meters underground.

Compared to scanning on the ground, this depth has undoubtedly increased a lot, and perhaps some metal objects buried deeper in the ground can be detected.

Ye Tian led two archaeologists to study the characters and patterns carved on the walls on both sides of the tunnel, as well as those in the rooms and caves.

As for Joshua and the Bishop of Kent, as well as the deputy mayor of Axum, they did not descend into this tunnel, but waited for news on the ground.

While they were talking, Ye Tian and the others had entered this tunnel for more than ten minutes, and walked through a tunnel of ten or twenty meters, but they didn't find any surprises.

On the walls on both sides of this tunnel, as well as in the primitive-style rooms and caves, there are many very old characters and patterns carved.

By studying those ancient words and patterns, they did not find any information related to the treasure, let alone the legendary treasure of Solomon.

Although the exploration team scanned some metal objects buried deep underground, most of those metal objects exist in isolation, scattered in different places, and obviously they are not treasures!

In the tunnel.

Ye Tian and the others turned a turn and entered a section of the tunnel to the north.

On both sides of this tunnel, there are also several rooms and caves made of granite, which are ancient and strong.

Same as before, Ye Tian first quickly checked the situation here to see if the secret passage was strong.

Confirming that there is no danger of collapse, the three of them began to explore.

It didn't take long for everyone to discover something.

"Steven, come and take a look. There seems to be a lion of Judah carved here, but it's a bit vague. The pattern of the lion of Judah is very old, a bit older than the'Lion of Judah' later revered by the Solomon dynasty."

The archaeologist from Columbia University said in a very excited tone.

Hearing this, Ye Tian and another archaeologist immediately walked over and looked at the pattern carved on the wall.

On the wall on the right side of the tunnel, a stone about 1.5 meters above the ground is indeed carved with a lion pattern.

Judging from its shape, it is indeed an older "Lion of Judah", but most of the head has been smashed, and there are many scratches on the body, which have long been blurred.

Ye Tian stepped forward and looked at the stone carving pattern, then gently nodded and said:

"Yes, this is the'Lion of Judah', and it is very old. Judging from its carving techniques and traces, it should have been carved around 200 BC, with a very long history.

The lion of Judah in the same style, I have also seen it in Jerusalem. Later, the lion of Judah, which was honored by the royal family of the Solomon dynasty, should have developed on this basis.

The lion of Judah from the Solomon dynasty added a lot of Ethiopian cultural features, making it more wild and lifelike. The discovery of this lion of Judah may prove something.

The royal family of the Solomon dynasty said that they were the direct descendants of King Solomon and Queen of Sheba.

Everyone, take a closer look at the surrounding situation and see if you can find some more valuable clues. There may be words and patterns related to this lion of Judah."

"Okay, Steven"

The two archaeologists responded, both very excited.

Later, the two archaeologists began to look at the ancient characters and patterns carved on the wall, looking for valuable clues.

Ye Tian walked deeper into the tunnel. After five or six meters, he walked into a stone house on the right side of the tunnel.

Like the stone houses I have explored before, the walls of this stone house are also engraved with many ancient words and patterns, but more of them are graffiti left by modern people.

The difference is that there is something similar to a stone table in this stone house.

In fact, it is a stone platform protruding from the ground. It is more square and looks like a stone table.

After entering the stone house, Ye Tian first glanced at the overall environment, then walked to the center of the stone house and began to look at the stone platform that looked like a table.

On that stone platform, many things are densely carved.

There are ancient characters and patterns, as well as many graffiti left by later generations.

From Gisvin to Amharic, to Tigray and Latin, as well as Arabic and Italian, etc., you can see many languages ​​on this stone platform.

The various patterns and lines that are unknown to me are countless, almost completely concealing the original patterns and words.

Obviously, before the Obelisk Square became a world cultural heritage and was protected, countless people came here!

Many of them have left traces of their own visits here, such as **** visiting here and so on.

Seeing the situation on the surface of the stone platform, Ye Tian couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile.

Even so, he squatted down and began to look at the ancient characters and patterns that were still faintly distinguishable on the stone platform.

After a while, he suddenly gave a surprised cry.

What surprised him was a fuzzy pattern on the side of the stone platform.

It depicts a few small people kneeling on the ground praying or worshiping, looking very religious.

It is unknown who they worshipped, whether they were people, gods, or animals!

The place where the object of worship was originally portrayed was destroyed by people hundreds of thousands of years ago. Later, people carved a lot of messy things.

The only thing I can see is the upper edge of a grotto, where light seems to be radiating outward.

As for the appearance and location of this grotto, this information is unknown.

Ye Tian checked the pattern carefully, then he pondered for a while, and then called in the two archaeologists outside.

When they came in, he pointed to the pattern on the side of the stone table and said:

"Look at this stone carving pattern, I feel a little bit interesting, it seems that there is some important information hidden, but it is a pity that the damage was too serious."

Following the direction of his fingers, the two archaeologists immediately looked at the stone pattern.

Soon, their eyes brightened and they became much more excited.

"What do these people seem to be worshiping? It seems to be a temple. It may be a person or a god, or it may be an animal regarded as a god. This object of worship radiates holy light!"

"It's a pity that these stone carvings have been damaged too badly, and there should have been texts around them, but they have also been completely destroyed!"

Ye Tian nodded, then smiled and said:

"According to my appraisal, this stone carving pattern should have been carved around 200 BC or even earlier, and the style of this stone carving pattern is different from the Ethiopian stone carving patterns of the same period.

To be precise, this stone carving pattern is closer to the ancient stone carving art in the Middle East and Arabia. In particular, are the few little people kneeling on the ground praying more like Jews than blacks?

We know that the Jews are the Semites of the Northwest branch, while the ancestors of the Semitic races in Ethiopia are the Semites of the South branch. There are obvious differences between the two Semites.

Some Jews followed Menelik I to Ethiopia and merged with the locals to form Beta Israelis. This is a later thing. It is not so easy to form a nation."

Following his words, the two archaeologists who were about to stand up immediately pounced on the stone table.

After Ye Tian's prompt, they soon made new discoveries.

"Yes, Steven, these people who kneel on the ground and pray are indeed more like Jews than native blacks or Semitic ethnic groups in Ethiopia!"

"One more thing, although these patterns are simple, it can be seen that these people are all dressed in clothes, and the posture in which they kneel and worship is also different from primitive religion.

Everyone knows that before Christianity was introduced into Ethiopia, there were only primitive religions in Ethiopia. Now it seems that there might be Judaism here at that time! "

After listening to the analysis of the two archaeologists, Ye Tian nodded gently.

"I tend to think that there should be some Jews on this stone carving. Now we have to figure out what are they worshiping? Where is this place that looks like a grotto?"

Following these words, both archaeologists' eyes shone straight in excitement.

When they saw the ruined stone table, they were very disappointed, even a little depressed.

But they still threw themselves on the stone table and took out a magnifying glass to check little by little, trying to find more clues.

Ye Tian was checking the surrounding walls to see if he could find anything.

During the inspection, he would hit the wall with his fist a few times from time to time, listen to the echo, and see if there is a hidden cell or secret room in the wall.

It's a pity that the feedback sounds are very dull, and there is no empty echo.

While talking, he had come to a wall on the east side of the stone house, checked the words and patterns carved on this stone wall, and looked for various possible clues.

When he glanced over a piece of granite on the wall, he stopped abruptly.

Immediately afterwards, he took a step forward and began to examine this piece of granite carefully.

Like many granites in this stone house, this piece of granite is also engraved with various patterns and characters, or graffiti, completely concealing the original ancient characters and patterns, and it looks messy!

However, these boring graffiti can't cover up the structure here, and can't cover the crevices around it.

It was these places that Ye Tian observed.

He carefully inspected the piece of granite and the surrounding area, and then fell into contemplation.

Soon, the two archaeologists discovered his abnormal behavior and walked over here.

When they came closer, they first looked at Ye Tian, ​​and then at this solid wall.

Unfortunately, they didn't see anything.

"Steven, what did you find on this wall? Can you tell me something?"

One of the archaeologists asked.

Only then did Ye Tian wake up.

He looked at the two archaeologists, and then at the wall in front of him.

"I may have discovered something. There may be some secrets hidden in this wall, but I'm not sure yet. I need to explore a bit before I know the answer!"

Before he could say anything, the archaeologist from Columbia University raised his fist and slammed into the wall.

"Boom Boom Boom"

The feedback given by the wall was so dull that nothing was unusual.

"This wall doesn't seem to be anything special. Could it be that there is a secret cell or a secret room behind the wall, or an unknown secret road"

The archaeologist said in surprise, confused.

Ye Tian smiled softly, and did not respond, but picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

"Come here, Nick, I need you to scan a place with a pulse metal detector, maybe there will be some surprises!"

"Received~www.readwn.com~Steven, we will come right away"

Nick responded.

In a blink of an eye, Nick and the others have entered this ancient stone house.

Seeing them coming in, Ye Tian immediately pointed to the wall in front of him and said:

"You scan this wall, the ground below the wall and the table in the center of the stone house, scan it again, maybe there is a secret hidden here!"

"Okay, Steven, leave it to us"

Nick nodded in response, and acted immediately.

They scanned the places designated by Ye Tian with a pulse metal detector one by one, but found nothing.

The pulse metal detector has never sounded, which is undoubtedly disappointing!

Facing such a result, Ye Tian fell into contemplation again!
